Public Safety

During Question Period on public safety, the topic was Bill C-22, which would give police and security agencies faster access to basic subscriber and electronic data during investigations, including in urgent situations, and set rules for how service providers must help with lawful access. Greg Fergus cited testimony from the public safety committee, including from the Canadian Centre for Child Protection, that investigations of child sexual exploitation take too long and that the bill would help police get information sooner. Parliamentary Secretary Jacques Ramsay thanked the committee for its work and said the bill is an essential part of the government’s plan for safe communities, giving law enforcement modern tools to protect victims and catch people who exploit children. Both members who spoke supported the bill.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
